As we have a decent away following its not surprising that initially the games are classed as all ticket for away fans. The Albion ticket office get a substantial allocation so that they can be bought in person , online or by post. Clubs dont want to be swamped by fans queueing up at THEIR ticket office or the turnstiles with cash at 2.30 on the day. Making an announcement its pay on the day in the week before the match generally means the majority of fans will already have their tickets.

Sounds like its our club that likes to make things difficult:glare:

I bet all along swindon have known it will be pay on the gate,but bha get to obsessed with this away membership bollocks.Yes its good for many games but certainly not a game which has 3200 seats available and is 2 hrs away.???
Why not? We took 3,500 to Southend on the opening day not that long ago, and that's also 2 hours away.

I asked this at the ticket office yesterday (and apols if it has now changed) but the chap said that we (as in BHA) get 10% of the cost of all tix sold thru the club. So for the two I bought (at £18 each) the Albion made £3.60.

Maybe thats why, as if they announce pay on the day then they could lose some revenue.

Dont shoot the messenger tho, Im only reporting what I was told.

Just bought my ticket from the club shop and it is a terrace ticket. Therefore we must have sold out the seated area now. At least 1500 of us up there then.

do you reckon we can swap arkells for behind goal??:laugh: or does anyone fancy swapping?

As it is pay on the day the Swindon ticket office might swap them for you as there maybe some boring old farts who need to sit down and wont be be able to stand for 90 minutes on the terracing.

same thing happened with Swindon last season, i panicked and bought tickets straight away as they said there would be no tickets on the day, to then arrive at the ground and they were selling them on the door, CHEAPER ASWELL!! scandalous

Do you expect us to sell another clubs tickets on their behalf for nothing ? 10% commission is quite reasonable but that is going to be offset from other clubs selling tickets for Withdean which have to be all ticket.

I have just spoken to the Swindon Ticket office - take not BHA they open sensible and customer friendly hours - who have confirmed that it is DEFINITELY pay on the gate for the terrace behind the goal. Ticket office will open from 11.30.

Fill your boots!
